    The 'quality' of Womens Football

    The Hundred was supposed to be a great turning point for womens cricket, fta tv and all that. A few days after the tournament finished England women were back playing at small, not sold out ground, and Warwickshire women were playing in front of the proverbial one man and a dog at a club ground...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Within Coventry near Birmingham is an odd way of putting it, hardly a beacon of positivity for the city if the selling point is its near Brum.

    The 'quality' of Womens Football

If the womens game continues trying to be a direct copy of the mens game its going to incredibly tough for them to catch up drives me...

    All purpose cricket thread

    I've been of the opinion you have to keep Root as there's no other option but think we've moved past that point and now there's a danger its going to impact his batting. As you say you can't have Anderson or Broad as they don't play every game, Stokes has just been out for months with mental...

    All purpose cricket thread

    think it was Vaughn that said you could only really make a case for one of Englands dismissals being a decent ball, the rest have just been wickets thrown away and in exactly the same manner they've been doing all winter. As you say we have a stack of coaches and analysts, why isn't the problem...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Interestingly the article, although its the Sun so take it with a pinch of salt, says it was deliberate and the Russian soldiers are basically pissed off with being led to the slaughter and starting to disobey orders. Obviously it may not be true but if it is not a good sign, Russia will have to...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    When they come out with things like this does nobody question if they are competent to be in their role? If you haven't got a handle on what is going on in your own family how can you be fit to run the country?

    Car Park C

    Do the park and rides still operate? When I used to travel up from Portsmouth I'd use them and it was a decent service but can't recall seeing the buses waiting after a match for years now. Always seemed pretty busy so not sure why they'd scrap that if they have.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No VAT on solar panels and heat pumps, I'm all for no VAT on energy saving products but I'm not convinced that's really going to help people with the cost of living crisis.
